    I'm wondering why I am not able to mouse over a variable in VS.NET while in debug mode and get the value of the variable. Instead I get the variable declaration information. Also, when I make a change in debug mode, VS.NET doesn't recompile and run the application with the new code in place. Instead I have to stop the debugger and start it over again. Is there something in VS.NET where I set preferences to make this work or is there something I should have installed? I guess I'm just wondering what I'm missing. :confused: Thanks!

      Other people can answer you better than me. But I noticed that you "get the value of the variable. Instead I get the variable declaration information. " when the variable is nto valid at that moment, like a NULL pointer. For the second, look for the edit and continue compiler option and look also for the conditions when this is disabled.
